The Maruti Suzuki Dzire (2025) is gearing up for one of its most significant updates yet, focusing on safety, technology, and design refinement. As one of India’s top-selling compact sedans, the Dzire has been synonymous with efficiency and comfort. However, with the evolving Bharat NCAP standards and consumer demand for safer vehicles, Maruti has introduced a series of safety enhancements that make the Dzire 2025 more robust, reliable, and future-ready.
With this upgrade, the Dzire continues to balance affordability, elegance, and safety, reinforcing its leadership in the compact sedan segment.
Design & Exterior Enhancements
The Dzire 2025 facelift adopts a more premium and aerodynamic design inspired by Maruti’s latest global styling cues. The front fascia features a redesigned honeycomb grille, sharper LED projector headlamps, and a sportier bumper. The alloy wheels now sport a dual-tone machine finish, and the tail lamps receive a sleeker wraparound LED signature.
Maruti has also worked on strengthening the chassis structure, integrating more high-tensile steel into the body frame to improve rigidity and crash resistance. The result is a safer, more stable sedan that also offers better NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) control. Available in new shades like Urban Silver, Luxe Burgundy, and Pearl Arctic White, the Dzire 2025 combines safety with style.
Interior Upgrades & Comfort
Inside, the Maruti Dzire 2025 features a refreshed cabin layout with dual-tone beige and black interiors, a floating 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and premium soft-touch finishes. The dashboard design feels more upmarket, complemented by chrome detailing and improved switchgear quality.
The seats now feature better side bolstering and ISOFIX anchor points in the rear for child safety. The driver’s seat is height adjustable, while the steering wheel now offers tilt and telescopic adjustments for better ergonomics. The cabin insulation has been improved with enhanced door sealing and underbody damping, creating a quieter and more comfortable ride experience.
Powertrain & Efficiency
The Dzire 2025 will continue with the reliable 1.2-litre DualJet K-Series petrol engine, delivering 89 PS and 113 Nm of torque. The engine is paired with a 5-speed manual and a 5-speed AMT (AGS) transmission. Maruti’s new engine calibration enhances throttle response and fuel economy, ensuring the Dzire remains among the most efficient sedans in India.
A CNG variant will also be available, producing 77 PS and 98.5 Nm, with an outstanding fuel efficiency of around 31 km/kg. The petrol version maintains an impressive mileage of 22–23 km/l, depending on the variant. The refined engine setup ensures a smooth and linear power delivery while keeping running costs low — a trademark of the Dzire lineup.
Safety Features & Crash Rating Improvements
The highlight of the Maruti Suzuki Dzire 2025 update is its significant safety overhaul. The sedan has been designed to meet and exceed the new Bharat NCAP protocols, with key structural reinforcements and new standard safety equipment.
The car now offers six airbags on higher trims and dual airbags as standard across all variants. Additional safety features include Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Hill Hold Assist, ABS with EBD, and rear parking sensors. The body shell has been strengthened using high-tensile steel in critical impact zones.
According to internal testing and early evaluations, the Dzire 2025 is expected to achieve a 4-star Bharat NCAP safety rating, a huge leap over its predecessors. It also includes seatbelt reminders for all passengers, speed-sensing door locks, and a rear camera with dynamic guidelines to enhance overall safety.
Technology & Connectivity
The Dzire 2025 is now equipped with Maruti’s latest SmartPlay Pro+ infotainment system, offering wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, along with over-the-air (OTA) updates. A new semi-digital instrument cluster integrates a 4.2-inch TFT display, providing live fuel data, trip statistics, and driver assistance alerts.
Other key features include auto climate control, push-button start-stop, cruise control, keyless entry, and rear AC vents for improved passenger comfort. Top variants get connected car technology, enabling remote access, geofencing, and vehicle health monitoring through the Suzuki Connect app.
Price & Launch Details
The Maruti Suzuki Dzire (2025) is expected to launch in mid-2025, with a starting price of ₹7.20 lakh (ex-showroom) and going up to ₹10.60 lakh for the fully-loaded automatic variants. The CNG variants will likely be priced between ₹8.50–₹9.80 lakh, offering excellent value for budget-conscious buyers.
The sedan will be manufactured at Maruti’s Manesar plant, with production already aligned with the company’s greener, safety-first manufacturing standards. With this upgrade, the Dzire will continue to appeal to both private owners and fleet customers seeking a safe, efficient, and feature-rich sedan.
Market Outlook & Rivals
The Maruti Dzire 2025 will face competition from the Hyundai Aura, Tata Tigor, and Honda Amaze, all of which have also improved their safety standards. However, the Dzire’s blend of reliability, fuel efficiency, and enhanced safety makes it a leading contender in the sub-4m sedan segment.
With the 2025 facelift, Maruti reinforces its commitment to evolving from just “value for money” to “value with safety”, setting a new benchmark for India’s affordable compact sedans.
